These are the good and bad aspects of each type of team
Solo Player(Mercinary): This is good because you start with a good amount of money, and can be hired from weaker players for battles(at a charge of $5,000), but you do not win as many battles.
Team of 2: This is a good choice because you start of with plenty of money and plus you will earn more money in the long run!
Team of 3: This is also a good choice, you get enough money(maybe not as much as the above but still enough) to buy an alright zoid, and you also get alot of team money quite quickly.
Team of 4: I would not recomend being a team of 4, because you only just get enough money for an average zoid, and it is very hard to get started, but you will get good money in the long run(takes a while)
